Strategic Work

Key statutory agencies such as Harrow Council and Harrow Primary Care Trust work with HAVS to consult on new policies and strategies. HAVS disseminates this information through its mail outs and on occasion will hold public meetings to inform the sector of the developments.

If you need information about the Local Area Agreement, or how you can become involved in various initiatives, please contact Julia who will be able to point you in the right direction.
